'11 FL DE Curt Maggitt - UT Signee

So is Maggitt going to be an OLB? B/c according to Hubbs the staff has talked to AJ Johnson about playing Sam or Will LB instead of MLB.

SLB: AJ Johnson, 6'3 230
MLB: John Propst, 6'0 225, Christian Harris 6'2 230
WLB: Curt Maggit, 6'3 230

That is a signficant upgrade in size at LB if that happens.

I know the coaches told AJ they could possibly see him at SLB but I find it hard to believe...I think he's perfect for MLB...

I could see this lineup in 2012:

SLB: King 6'2" 230 / Harris 6'2" 230
MLB: Johnson 6'3" 240 / Propst 6'0" 225
WLB: Maggitt 6'3" 230 / Lathers 6'1" 220

I can see someone in the 2012 class pushing Propst and Lathers in the mid to late portion of the 2012 season
 
Yall check out Julian Moncada ATH- Class of 2014. Freshman out of houston, tx and had 5 tds on varsity as a freshman! Texas competition. But, he plans on transferring to a Catholic shcool to pusue a Ctaholic education
 
I thought when he signed he was around 200? Some even said 195. So he's put on 25-30 pounds in 2-3 months? No way.

I'm not for sure what he was on NSD, but Hubbs did confirm recently that Maggit is in the 220-225 range now.

This pic was taken a month ago. He looks ~220 to me.

Magitt is a guy I definitely see playing jack linebacker in an over scheme which is what I expect we will run. In that sense he will sometimes see time as a 4th DL with his hand in the dirt. He will see early playing time in that role methinks.

No thanks, don't wanna waste my time watching someone that will probably end up at notre dame. I'm sure he is good though.
 
I think Curt will be a great player for UT before his time is over here. While I think he needs to add about 20-30lbs to be a DE...I think he could see some time as a LB in blitz packages. I also think he would do VERY well when it comes to covering quicker TE's on pass routes. Kid looks like a great athlete and we need to get him on the field.
 
He actually does look kind of like predator. Having dreads when your hair line is too far back does that (Julio Jones). The post about Christian Harris being smarter than AJ really is racist.

I'm assuming you're talking about my post....if so, you're way off. Harris flourished at Mike as a senior because of his play and his ability to quarterback the defense. AJ was more of a read and react player in high school. Facts are facts and has nothing to do with skin color.

Never fails though -- someone always cries racism foul on a message board.

Coaches told AJ he would be playing WILL and SAM over MIKE.
